Do gay/lesbian people like straight erotic content?

[Tataro]

Thanks. I polished both my teeth and my neck tendons before taking that picture.

Hows it being a lesbian latina? Don't see many of those tbh, got any issues over it?

I don't want to speak for all four of us, but it's not that bad.

I grew up religious, my family had pictures of Jesus in every room. Coming out was tough, especially to my grandparents. But my older sister was a stripper so she took some of the heat off me, haha

I'm also young and grew up in a liberal state in the northeast United States, so my experience might not be a good barometer for how tough it is. I have it easy, but only because other people didn't and did something about it.

Generalize much? It is all but impossible to say what a group would or not like. Being one member of said group does not give you insight into everyone (or even anyone) else. All comes down the individual and their tastes.

 

[GuyFreely]

Well it was nice while it lasted, but I think we're derailing here. Took longer than I expected tbh. Thank you for the posts that were actually on topic.

@greysaber I'm not even sure who your comment was directed at. You're saying people are different and we can't just lump them all together in neat little groups? Holy shit, mind blown. I don't think anybody is generalizing here, mostly just giving their personal thoughts/opinions/experiences from their perspective. We weren't trying to figure out the minds of all gay people here. This wasn't a scientific study. This was never about finding a definitive answer to anything. If there are gay/lesbian people here with vastly different takes on the actual topic, I'd be glad to hear them.

That there may be one of the most pointless snowflake stances I've heard in a while. While it isn't good to over generalize, it's also just as much a folly to assume individuals are so different that understanding is impossible. You are just placing yourself at the other extreme of that pendulum's swing. The biggest problem is that it assumes we are incapable of empathy, which may be true for the sociopaths out there, but isn't the case with most people.

There's a reason stereotypes tend to resonate with people. Even if they aren't totally true all the time, they come close to hitting the mark often enough to bring in a flood of memories of times we've seen them play out in one form or another. If that weren't the case most comedians would be out of a job right now. There are many traits, habits and responses that are shared commonly throughout the population.

We are a species that relies heavily on community to survive, especially in the early formative years. As such, when certain cultures have shared practices of child rearing, it will tend to yield children with a fair few similarities, even if they are mainly superficial. As we grow up and start to find our identity we tend to gravitate towards other like-minded individuals, which again will impart similarities through shared experiences. This holds true for people who come together over sexuality just as much as it does for those who come together for sports, hobbies and occupations. So there is plenty we can generalize about and still be fairly correct more often then not about individuals within a larger group.

Despite not being the least bit gay, I would assume the general rules of arousal still appiles equally to both myself and gay people. I am straight, so I watch straight porn (or lesbian, since it is 2 of what I enjoy seeing) where there is a man and a woman present. I have no interest in the man, but I am fully capeable of getting off from watching a man and a woman having sex, since I am attracted to one of them.
I would assume that the same should (and I mean should, cause like I said, I am not gay) apply to gay people, meaning that I assume they would be able to get aroused, if the they find the person of their preferred gender attractive.

Of course I could completely wrong, and if so then I will accept and learn from it.

Im with you, why i found myself shocked at the thought of liking futa more than i thought i would have. Sexy girl with a penis... who knew?

Well most lesbian porn is made for straight men. You will see then have long manicured nails, way too much fingering. Looks great, but most girls know that doesn't feel good.

Straight porn is mostly about penetration. Doesn't matter the circumstances, most lesbians can relate to that feeling and know that it feels good.

So basically we both watch the same videos, ogling the girl and ignoring the guy. And we both say, 'Damn, that probably feels really good.' But you might imagine the guy as yourself and I imagine him as a dildo.

That is a detailed hole, and shows some dedication.

I guess that makes her the forums anal queen.

 

[thecardinal]

Older sister stripper, younger sister lesbian... Are you sure that's not the premise of one of the games of this forum? A hot mom and the youngest brother that returns home after some time living outside for some reason, and there you have...

PD. You can't say something like that in forum like this about porn, and expect that nobody makes a joke about it penedeyewink:

Well I never said what kind of stripper. Maybe she is very plus-sized and the club is called Hungry Hungry Strippos.

 

[kimoo]

to know the proper answer .....
i should ask as straight person (do i like lesbian/gay scenes in games )
the answer not really clear (i don't even like threesome )
just man and woman ...

 

[NandabaCanti]

I'm spanish and don't get the joke... "Strippos"? Anyway, a plus-sized stripper at least would be something different. I'm pretty bored of the same bodies of siliconed pornstars and perfect top-models in all the games; including yours, I´m afraid. But at least you use your own models of faces and bodies, if I'm not in a wrong. Even if some of them are not really well finished, it´s something good. But "Based in real events" would be the icing in the cake for a game like yours. Huge kink and huge boost in patreon, for sure.

Strippos has nothing to do with Spanish. It's sort of a portmanteau of "strippers" and "hippos" being used to make something of a pun related to the classic children's game

. Replacing the hippos with plus-sized strippers (strippos) in this case. I get this humorous image in my head of each of the 4 corners of the game having a stripper pole that a big lady is grabbing onto and each press of the button causes her to do a twerking like motion down onto the stage between them to grab dollar bills off it with their butts to pull in to their collection rather than a hippo head trying to grab little white marbles. XD

As a lesbian, i'm not the biggest fan or straight porn or lesbian, but i love to play Hentai games, don't care if the mc is a guy, my only focus is the face of the girls and their boobs, so i guess it's okay for me.

 

[Hauptmann]

@MrKnobb Yeah, I agree on the girl/girl vs guy/guy situation for straight men. It makes sense that if there are two attractive women having sex, even with each other, there's plenty for a straight man to like about it. Similarly, if there is a woman having a sex without a man (machine, beast, monster, etc.), it's still a hot woman getting fucked. So those fetishes are easier to understand for me. On the flip side, while less common, those types of situations sometimes happen to men in erotica. I feel like I've seen hentai art of a man having his dick sucked on by a plant or something (not a dryad or anything). This sort of fiction doesn't do anything for me, personally. I know supposedly for guys, a hole's a hole, but I think there are limits to what is appealing in fiction to that notion. Now, if I was on a deserted island with a plant that was basically an organic fleshlight, I might get lonely enough. Still, that would be much more about the sensation than a "oh yeah, fuck that plant, so hot" kind of thing.

It seems natural to me that a straight woman watching straight porn might identify with the woman in the scene. Imagining being in her place as it were. The line of thinking would be that a lesbian would have a harder time identifying with a woman being fucked by a man as that prospect doesn't really do anything for them. It seems that, as a lesbian, the woman in a straight sex scene can still be the object of desire and not necessarily the one you identify with. I hope I'm not misinterpreting what I've read so far. We haven't had a gay man's perspective yet. I'm curious if it's different for them.

Sorry for being so late, I'm pretty much a gay man. So I'll offer my side of things as best as I can.

When it comes to general porn, Not really into straight stuff personally. I feel virtually no excitement. However when it comes to porn games like we find on F95 that's where things get abit complicated. For a start there is very little actual gay content in H games, especially the popular ones. Even the ones that has the 'gay' label, there's perhaps one brief scene of gay male content. This makes sense as the majority of people are straight, and most devs who make these games are also straight. Unfortunately the lack of gay male content I have to make do. More often then not it's the situations that end up being sexy as well as the fantasy, even absurd, plots and events that occur. Let's face it alot of these games have taboo content and often taboo is exciting. I'd play a game like Summertime Saga and wish that there was at least one scene where the MC plays with Kevin, Or maybe even Eric. Kevin is very obviously gay in that game. However I fear none of these will ever happen.

So basically I can enjoy some of the straight content when the characters are likable and that is really the crux of the whole thing. While I don't find the females very attractive in these games, They tend to have exaggerated female features like very large breasts, very shapely butts, the desired slim waist+ wide hips. But the fantasy nature like, a boy comming of age, a sexual awakening. Falling in love with family. Really taboo absurd situations componsate for the lack of attraction towards the female characters. I did find the odd exception, for example like the MC's sister Sara in Milfy City, she is more tomboyish. The character of Eve in Summertime Saga, she can easily be a cute twink. Still more often then not, I just wanted to see the MC's penis, thrusting into someone, preferably anally. My least favorite are naturally the lesbian scenes, They're just tedious for me and skip them if I can. Though I get it, I'm very much in the minority. I also have weird fetishes like incest, Mentoring scenes, sexual discovery. All of which in fantasy settings.

So basically, I do get some enjoyment out of the straight content, However it is more a making do situation more than anything else. Ideally the games would have the options of where you want the MC to go. Though that is ALOT of work and most devs would be too grossed out or have too much pride to add gay male content. Basically the appeal, even with the straight content for me are the fantasy settings. How unreal they are, even absurd. Makes the straight stuff almost sexy to me. Still given the choice, I would go for the gay option 9 times out of 10.

I don't think it is that surprising that many gay people, of either gender, can enjoy straight porn. After all, if you are a straight male enjoying straight porn, you're not being put off by the guy being in it, despite not being aroused at the sight of cock. So likewise for any other sexuality, whether your taste is for the male form or the female one, there's one of each there to get turned on by. Something for everyone.

For the record, the biggest consumers of lesbian porn are men who actually do feel they can't get aroused by anything that puts a penis on the screen, since they might catch gay... I kid you not. So there are those who are literally afraid they might get turned on by the wrong thing, and so are too distracted to enjoy the bit they are attracted to. People are strange, and rationality is often largely illusory.

Finally, there are aversions rather than attractions. There are rare people who rather than having a strong attraction to a particular gender, are instead driven by fear of the opposite one. I've known 2 men who had a serious revulsion at the very thought of a vagina, so that pretty much instantly settled the issue of what would be their only option for a sexual relationship. Sadly, one of the two was even more screwed up than just having one aversion, in that he'd had a very strict Catholic upbringing, completely indoctrinated that homosexuality was a mortal sin, and so really just couldn't form any relationships at all. He was only attracted to the one thing he could never let himself have, and to repulsed by the female body to 'settle' for anything else.

Sexuality is a very complex thing. But you can still play to averages, and regular straight sex has the most crossovers on the 'Venn diagram of sexuality'.

Personally I expected lesbian women having a variety of preferences similar to straight men, while gay men having preferences similar to straight women. After all, they are attracted to the same gender, so I can't think of a reason, why their porn preferences would be so vastly different. Like a straight man can either prefer lesbian porn or straight porn, why would a lesbian woman think so much different? Some find male participation disturbing, some don't, regardless of your own gender. Likewise a gay man may gay porn only or straight porn equally, with some genres, like gang bang or straight NTR focusing already being somehow in between.

When it comes to straight porn games however, I think straight men and lesbian women generally have it easier, as the women in these game are usually created to look attractive and also sexily dressed, while the men are mostly the kind of teenage wimps and creepy grandpas most gay men and straight women would not consider sexy despite having penises that could be mistaken for a third leg.

Bisexual, here. Thought I’d chip in.

I usually like either women or cute bottoms/ts.
Whether it is in porn, gaming or in RL, I’m generally not attracted to “masculine” men, and particularly not those who behave like they have something to prove in that regard. "Bad boys", if you will.

In porn, I am often genuinely put off by the type of man who is in it.
By that, I mean they tend to look like criminals or like they have real and serious personal issues. You can see it instantly, and it is a turn-off.
The amateur stuff is often better, even if it certainly has its share of obvious creeps and douchebags.

I guess it is easier for straight men to ignore the guy and just imagine themselves replacing him. It is a bit trickier for me. Maybe it is not even my sexuality but just my instincts (former bouncer) kicking in.

 

[GuyFreely]

Glad to have more feedback from people with varying sexual preferences. It does make some amount of sense that huge boobed bimbo characters would be less appealing than slimmer tomboyish characters to gay men. I guess the best way to have wider appeal is more variation in partners. This might be tangential, but whatever. Speaking as a straight man, I don't mind futa content, but it gets a bit fuzzy. My preference would be futa x woman. I don't mind a bit of futa x futa if they are hermaphroditic. When it's futa x futa and they both have only dicks it starts straying too far for me. Finally, futa x man is pretty much a no go for me. It's all a bit complicated for most of us I think.
